Crops under solar panels can be a win-win, and in dry places, photovoltaic shade can even reduce water use, suggests new study in journal Nature Sustainability. For example, cherry tomatoes saw a 65% increase in CO2 uptake, a 65% increase in water-use efficiency, and produced twice as much fruit. arstechnica.com/science/2…
TIL the Netherlands is a leader when it comes to food production due to innovations in agricultural techniques which drastically improve efficiency. Growing a kg of tomatoes in the Netherlands uses 9.1L of water (1.1 gallon/lb). The global average is over 210L of water per kg (25.6 gallon/lb) nationalgeographic.com/ma…
Heat Pump Water Heaters — Game Changers In Efficiency. Heat pump water heaters are 7 times more efficient than gas and 3.5 times more efficient than electric water heaters. Not only are they crazy efficient, but heat pump water heaters use electricity, which gives us a recipe for clean water heating cleantechnica.com/2020/04…

Efficiency of Water Electrolysis to make hydrogen
I have been struggling with a question that I cannot seem to make a good answer for. We know that the electrolysis of water to make hydrogen gas is not 100% efficient, but I am not sure what exactly is driving these loses in efficiency if it's not just the energy barrier that the reaction must past in order to be executed (because it is non-spontaneous) What makes electrolysis of water inefficient?
